Anesthesia question

We had to take our dog in for xrays yesterday. They had to put her under with anesthesia. She's still walking around pretty loopy. Does anyone know about how long it should last?

anesthesia usually stays in the system for 24 hours. Hope everything turns out okay....

She has a large lump on the side of her neck. We have to take her to Annapolis to a specialist for a biopsy. It actually feels like it got bigger just since yesterday. It's very upsetting.

If you give me the number to your vet I'll call and ask.

Was a needle biopsy out of the question? What breed is your dog?

The vet in Pr. Fred doesn't do biopsies. They recommended one in Annapolis that is able to handle a wide variety of these circumstances. So they will probably do a needle biopsy.

We adopted this dog from a rescue place. We were told she is a cockapoo but after talking to many people and doing some research we found out she may be a Sealyham Terrier. But I think there may a mix of several breeds.

Well, she gets her biopsy today. Hope for the best. The lump on her neck has gotten bigger (about the size of a lemon) and she has really slowed down. We're pretty scared about this.

The news is not good. Lexus has cancer. The Dr. did not give a good prognosis for surgery. So we are going to talk and see what we are going to do and just take it day by day.

Oh, I'm sorry. That really stinks.
